The TDA7577BLV is a new MOSFET dual bridge
amplifier specially intended for car radio
applications. Thanks to the DMOS output stage
the TDA7577BLV has a very low distortion
allowing a clear powerful sound, together with
high output power capability.
It is a very flexible device capable to support the
most demanding specifications in terms of power
dissipation and battery transitions: its superior
efficiency performance, coming from the internal
exclusive structure, can reduce the dissipated
output power up to the 50 % (when compared to
conventional class AB solutions). Moreover it is
compliant to the recent OEM specifications
thanks to the capability to work down to 6 V
('start-stop' compatibility).
This device is also equipped with a full diagnostic
array that communicates the status of each
speaker through the I2C bus. TDA7577BLV can
also drive 1 Ω loads (with parallel connection of
the outputs).
It is possible also to exclude the I2C bus interface,
controlling the device by means of the usual STBY and MUTE pins.
Full digital diagnostic (AC and DC loads)
Legacy mode (operation without
I2C)
Differential inputs

Turn-on diagnostic
It is strongly recommended to activate this function at the turn-on (standby out) through I2C
bus request. Detectable output faults are:
SHORT TO GND
SHORT TO Vs
SHORT ACROSS THE SPEAKER
OPEN SPEAKER
To verify if any of the above misconnections is in place, a subsonic (inaudible) current pulse
(Figure 23) is internally generated, sent through the speaker(s) and sunk back. The Turn-on
diagnostic status is internally stored until a successive diagnostic pulse is requested (after a
I2C reading).
If the "standby out" and "diag. enable" commands are both given through a single
programming step, the pulse takes place first (during the pulse power stages stay off,
showing high impedance at the outputs).
Afterwards, when the Amplifier is biased, the permanent diagnostic takes place. The
previous turn-on state is kept until a short appears at the outputs.

The information related to the outputs status is read and memorized at the end of the
current pulse plateau. The acquisition time is 100 ms (typ.). No audible noise is generated in
the process. As for SHORT TO GND / Vs the fault-detection thresholds remain unchanged
from 26 dB to 16 dB gain setting. They are as follows:

Diagnostics functional description
Permanent diagnostics
Detectable conventional faults are:
SHORT TO GND
SHORT TO Vs
SHORT ACROSS THE SPEAKER
The following additional feature is provided:
OUTPUT OFFSET DETECTION
The TDA7577BLV has 2 operating status:
1. RESTART mode. The diagnostic is not enabled. Each audio channel operates
independently of each other. If any of the a.m. faults occurs, only the channel(s)
interested is shut down. A check of the output status is made every 1 ms (Figure 29).
Restart takes place when the overload is removed.
2. DIAGNOSTIC mode. It is enabled via I2C bus and it self activates if an output overload
(such as to cause the intervention of the short-circuit protection) occurs to the speakers
outputs. Once activated, the diagnostics procedure develops as follows (Figure 30):
–
To avoid momentary re-circulation spikes from giving erroneous diagnostics, a
check of the output status is made after 1ms: if normal situation (no overloads) is
detected, the diagnostic is not performed and the channel returns active.
–
Instead, if an overload is detected during the check after 1 ms, then a diagnostic
cycle having a duration of about 100 ms is started.
–
After a diagnostic cycle, the audio channel interested by the fault is switched to
RESTART mode. The relevant data are stored inside the device and can be read
by the microprocessor. When one cycle has terminated, the next one is activated
by an I2C reading. This is to ensure continuous diagnostics throughout the carradio operating time.
–
To check the status of the device a sampling system is needed. The timing is
chosen at microprocessor level (more than half a second is recommended).

TDA7577BLV
Output DC offset detection
Any DC output offset exceeding ± 2 V is signalled out. This inconvenient might occur as a
consequence of initially defective or aged and worn-out input capacitors feeding a DC
component to the inputs, so putting the speakers at risk of overheating.
This diagnostic has to be performed with low-level output AC signal (or Vin = 0).
The test is run with selectable time duration by microprocessor (from a "start" to a "stop"
command):
START = Last reading operation or setting IB1 - D5 - (OFFSET enable) to 1
STOP = Actual reading operation
Excess offset is signalled out if it is persistent for all the assigned testing time. This feature is
disabled if any overloads leading to activation of the short-circuit protection occurs in the
process.
4.4
AC diagnostic
It is targeted at detecting accidental disconnection of tweeters in 2-way speaker and, more
in general, presence of capacitively (AC) coupled loads.
This diagnostic is based on the notion that the overall speaker's impedance (woofer +
parallel tweeter) will tend to increase towards high frequencies if the tweeter gets
disconnected, because the remaining speaker (woofer) would be out of its operating range
(high impedance). The diagnostic decision is made according to peak output current
thresholds, and it is enabled by setting (IB2-D2) = 1. Two different detection levels are
available:
HIGH CURRENT THRESHOLD IB2 (D7) = 0
Iout > 500mApk = NORMAL STATUS
Iout < 250mApk = OPEN TWEETER
LOW CURRENT THRESHOLD IB2 (D7) = 1
Iout > 250mApk = NORMAL STATUS
Iout < 125mApk = OPEN TWEETER
To correctly implement this feature, it is necessary to briefly provide a signal tone (with the
amplifier in "play") whose frequency and magnitude are such as to determine an output
current higher than 500 mApk with IB2(D7) = 0 (higher than 250 mApk with IB2(D7) = 1) in
normal conditions and lower than 250 mApk with IB2(D7) = 0 (lower than 125 mApk with
IB2(D7) = 1) should the parallel tweeter be missing.
The test has to last for a minimum number of 3 sine cycles starting from the activation of the
AC diagnostic function IB2) up to the I2C reading of the results (measuring period). To
confirm presence of tweeter, it is necessary to find at least 3 current pulses exceeding the
above threshold over all the measuring period, else an "open tweeter" message will be
issued.
The frequency / magnitude setting of the test tone depends on the impedance
characteristics of each specific speaker being used, with or without the tweeter connected
(to be calculated case by case). High-frequency tones (> 10 kHz) or even ultrasonic signals
are recommended for their negligible acoustic impact and also to maximize the impedance
module's ratio between with tweeter-on and tweeter-off.

Diagnostics functional description
Figure 31 and 32 shows the load impedance as a function of the peak output voltage and
the relevant diagnostic fields.
It is recommended to keep output voltage always below 8 V (high threshold) or 4 V (low
threshold) to avoid circuit to saturate (causing wrong detection cases).
This feature is disabled if any overloads leading to activation of the short-circuit protection
occurs in the process.

Multiple faults
When more misconnections are simultaneously in place at the audio outputs, it is
guaranteed that at least one of them is initially read out. The others are notified after
successive cycles of I2C reading and faults removal, provided that the diagnostic is enabled.
This is true for both kinds of diagnostic (Turn on and Permanent).
The table below shows all the couples of double-fault possible. It should be taken into
account that a short circuit with the 4 Ω speaker unconnected is considered as double fault.

In Permanent Diagnostic the table is the same, with only a difference concerning Open
Load(*), which is not among the recognizable faults. Should an Open Load be present
during the device's normal working, it would be detected at a subsequent Turn on
Diagnostic cycle (i.e. at the successive car radio turn-on).
4.6
Fault presence information availability on I2C
All the results coming from I2C bus, by read operations, are the consequence of
measurements inside a defined period of time. If the fault is stable throughout the whole
period, it will be sent out. This is true for DC diagnostic (Turn-on and Permanent), for offset
detector.
To guarantee always resident functions, every kind of diagnostic cycles (turn-on,
Permanent, Offset) will be reactivated after any I2C reading operation. Each I2C read-out
done by the microcontroller will enable a new diagnostic cycle, but the read data will come
from the previous diagnostic cycle (i.e. The device is in turn-on state, with a short to GND,
then the short is removed and micro reads I2C. The short to GND is still present in bytes,
because it is the result of the previous cycle. If another I2C reading operation occurs, the
bytes do not show the short). In general to observe a change in diagnostic bytes, two I2C
reading operations are necessary.

1 Ω load capability setting
1 Ω load capability setting
It is possible to drive 1 Ω load paralleling the outputs into a single channel.
In order to implement this feature, outputs should be connected as follows:
OUT1+ shorted to OUT2+
OUT1- shorted to OUT2-.
It is recommended to minimize the impedance on the board between OUT2 and the load in
order to minimize THD distortion. It is also recommended to control the maximum mismatch
impedance between VCC pins (PIN21/PIN22 respect to PIN33/PIN34) and between
PWGND pins (PIN24/PIN25 respect to PIN30/PIN31), mismatch that must not exceed a
value of 20 mΩ
With 1Ω feature settled the active input is IN2 (PIN17 and PIN18), therefore IN1 pins should
be let floating.
It is possible to set the load capability acting on 1 Ω pin as follows:
1 Ω PIN < 1.2V: two channels mode (for a minimum load of 2 Ω)
1 Ω PIN > 2.6V: one channel mode (for 1 Ω load).
It is to remember that 1 Ω function is a hardware selection.
Therefore it is recommended to leave 1 Ω pin floating or shorted to GND to set the two
channels mode configuration, or to short 1 Ω pin to VCC to set the one channel (1 Ω)
configuration.

Low voltage operation (“start stop”)
The most recent OEM specifications require automatic stop of car engine at traffic light, in
order to reduce emissions of polluting substances. The TDA7577BLV, thanks to its
innovating design, is able to play when battery falls down to 6/7 V during such conditions,
without producing audible pop noise. The maximum system power will be reduced
accordingly.
Worst case battery cranking curves are shown below, indicating the shape and duration of
allowed battery transitions.

I2C mode and legacy mode selection

TDA7577BLV
I2C mode and legacy mode selection
It is possible to disable the I2C interface by acting on I2C EN pin and control the
TDA7577BLV by means of the usual ST-BY and MUTE pins. In order to activate or
deactivate this feature, I2C-EN must be set as follows:
I2C-EN (PIN16) < 1.5 V:
–
I2C bus interface deactivated
I2C-EN (PIN16) > 2.5 V:
–
I2C bus interface activated
(It is also possible to let I2C-EN PIN floating to deactivate the I2C bus interface, or to short to
VCC to activate I2C).
In particular:
When I2C is ENABLED: (I2C-EN pin > 2.5 V) then there are the following modes:
STD MODE: Vstby (PIN5) > 2.6 V, IB2(D1)=0
HE MODE: Vstby (PIN5) > 2.6 V, IB2(D1)=1
PLAY MODE: Vmute (pin 4) > 2.6 V, IB1 (D2) = 1
The amplifier can always be switched off by putting Vstby to 0V, but with I2C enabled it can
be turn on only through I2C (with Vstby > 2.6 V).
When I2C is DISABLED: (I2C pin < 1.5 V) then there are the following modes:
STD MODE: 2.6 V < ST-BY (PIN5) < 5 V
HE MODE: Vstby (PIN5) > 7 V
PLAY MODE: Vmute (pin 4) > 2.6 V
For both STD and HE MODE the play/mute mode can be set acting on Vmute pin.
In legacy mode (I2C disabled), faults (diagnostics information) are available on HW pin CDOut. CD-Out pin is active on a low value [CD-Out low = fault detected]. The faults detected
are: short to ground or VCC, short across the load.

High efficiency introduction
Thanks to its operating principle, the TDA7577BLV obtains a substantial reduction of power
dissipation from traditional class-AB amplifiers without being affected by the massive
radiation effects and complex circuitry normally associated with class-D solutions.
The high efficiency operating principle is based on the use of bridge structures which are
connected by means of a power switch (Figure 1). The switch, controlled by a logic circuit
which senses the input signals, is closed at low volumes (output power steadily lower than
2.5 W) and the system acts like a "single bridge" with double load. In this case, the total
power dissipation is a quarter of a double bridge.
Due to its structure, the highest efficiency level can be reached when symmetrical loads are
applied on channels sharing the same switch.

'!0'03
When the power demand increases to more than 2.5 W, the system behavior is switched
back to a standard double bridge in order to guarantee the maximum output power, while in
the 6 V start-stop devices the High Efficiency mode is automatically disabled at low VCC
(7.3 V ±0.3 V). No need to re-program it when Vcc goes back to normal levels.
In the range 2-4 W (@ VCC = 14.4 V), with the High Efficiency mode, the dissipated power
gets up to 50 % less than the value obtained with the standard mode.

I2C bus interface

TDA7577BLV
I2C bus interface
Data transmission from microprocessor to the TDA7577BLV and vice versa takes place
through the 2 wires I2C bus interface, consisting of the two lines SDA and SCL (pull-up
resistors to positive supply voltage must be connected).
9.1
Data validity
As shown by Figure 37, the data on the SDA line must be stable during the high period of
the clock.
The HIGH and LOW state of the data line can only change when the clock signal on the SCL
line is LOW.
9.2
Start and stop conditions
As shown by Figure 38 a start condition is a HIGH to LOW transition of the SDA line while
SCL is HIGH.
The stop condition is a LOW to HIGH transition of the SDA line while SCL is HIGH.
9.3
Byte format
Every byte transferred to the SDA line must contain 8 bits. Each byte must be followed by an
acknowledge bit. The MSB is transferred first.
9.4
Acknowledge
The transmitter(*) puts a resistive HIGH level on the SDA line during the acknowledge clock
pulse (see Figure 39). The receiver(**) has to pull-down (LOW) the SDA line during the
acknowledge clock pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW during this clock pulse.
(*) Transmitter
= master (μP) when it writes an address to the TDA7577BLV
= slave (TDA7577BLV) when the μP reads a data byte from TDA7577BLV
(**) Receiver

I2C programming/reading sequences
A correct turn on/off sequence with respect to the diagnostic timings and producing no
audible noises could be as follows (after battery connection):
–
TURN-ON: (STANDBY OUT + DIAG ENABLE) --- 1 s (min) --- MUTING OUT
–
TURN-OFF: MUTING IN - wait for 50 ms - HW ST-BY IN (ST-BY pin ≤ 1.2 V)
Car Radio Installation: DIAG ENABLE (write) --- 200 ms --- I2C read (repeat until All faults
disappear).
–
OFFSET TEST: Device in Play (no signal) -–
OFFSET ENABLE - 30 ms - I2C reading
(repeat I2C reading until high-offset message disappears).
